Solid State Reduced Voltage Types Series MP700 Soft Start, Soft Stop

Fire Pump Controllers conform to the latest requirements of Chapter 10, National Fire Protection Association Pamphlet 20, Standard for Centrifugal Fire Pumps as adopted by Underwriters Laboratories and Factory Mutual.

Sizes range from 15 to 600 horsepower, 200 to 600 volts, 60 Hz. These controllers are used on reduced voltage type installations using a solid state starter for “Soft” starting and “Soft” stopping of electric motors.



TM



Aquarius



Standard Features Function - The MP700 series Soft Start electric fire pump controllers utilizes a state of the art solid state motor controller. The motor voltage is raised to an initial torque value. This is an adjustable value of locked rotor torque. The motor voltage is gradually increased during the acceleration ramp time. The acceleration ramp time is set to 10 seconds as required by NFPA 20, but it is adjustable from approximately 3 to 30 seconds.

After a minimum run period and all starting causes have returned to normal, the solid state controller will initiate a stop sequence. This function will reduce surges in the pumping system during stopping of a centrifugal pump by smoothly decelerating the motor at a selectable rate. This will reduce the possibility of surges occurring in the system.

Operator Interface Device (OID) with LED Annunciator and Digital Display

• The solid state unit is supplied with the following protection features: Instantaneous Overcurrent

Detection; Shorted SCR Detection; Phase Loss Monitor; Heatsink Over Temperature Switch

• NEMA Type 2 drip proof metal freestanding enclosure • Operator Interface Device (OID) with 4 lines by 20

character display with large character backlit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) capable of being read in both direct sunlight or dark lighting conditions

Wye−Delta Reduced Current Types Series MP430 and Series MP435 − CombinedManual and Automatic Aquarius Fire Pump Controllers conform to the latest requirements of Chapter 10, National Fire Protection Association Pamphlet 20, Standard for Centrifugal Fire Pumps as adopted by Underwriters Laboratories and Factory Mutual. They are withstand rated and listed by Underwriters’ Laboratories and approved by Factory Mutual Research Corporation.

Sizes range from 15 to 700 horsepower, 200 to 600 volts, 60 Hz. These controllers are for use on Reduced Voltage type installations.




TM




Standard Features Series MP430/MP435 Wye- Delta motors have all six leads brought out to the motor terminal box. These leads are connected by the controller first in the Wye configuration which draws only 33% of normal starting current and develops 33% of normal starting torque. After a short time delay, the controller then connects the motor winding in a Delta configuration, applying full voltage and drawing full load running current and developing full running torque.

With the MP430 open transition types, there is a very short period of time where no voltage is applied to the motor during transition from Wye to Delta connections. This condition can cause current surges or disturbances being fed back into the main power source. The magnitude of the surges is proportional to the phase difference between the voltage generated by the running motor and the power source. These transients can in some instances, affect other equipment which are sensitive to current surges.

The MP435 closed transition types provide a smoother transition from Wye to Delta by keeping the motor continuously energized during the transition period. This is accomplished by means of resistors which are connected in the circuit during the momentary period of transition from Wye to Delta.

Metron Wye-Delta Controllers incorporate a mechanical as well as electrical interlock to prevent the Wye connecting contactor from being energized at the same time as the Delta contactor.

An emergency start lever to close starting contactor independent of automatic control circuits. When used, this lever will bypass the reduced current start feature and start the motor with full inrush current drawn from the power source.
